ACORN hires felons to collect voter information

I’m not sure if this is surprising, given the frequency with which the “community organizers” at ACORN commit voter fraud for the Democrat party. But it’s disturbing nevertheless.

MADISON, Wis. – At least seven felons convicted of crimes including cocaine possession and robbery were recruited by a liberal group to register voters in Milwaukee.

The Republican Party says using convicted felons for that work increases the chances of voter fraud.

All seven were designated as special registration deputies in Milwaukee, which allows them to solicit and keep voter registration applications.

The Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now, or ACORN, hired all seven.

State law says anyone who is able to vote can be a special registration deputy. Felons can vote as long as they are no longer on probation or parole.

But the attorney for the state board that runs elections issued an opinion in April saying felons may not serve as special registration deputies.

Trusting convicted felons to handle voters’ personal information? Good idea, ACORN. There’s no chance of identity theft or voter fraud there, huh? Oops…

MILWAUKEE – A voter registration worker faces an election fraud charge for allegedly submitting dozens of fake names and addresses.

A criminal complaint filed Monday in Milwaukee County Circuit Court said 21-year-old Endalyn Adams submitted the information as a worker paid by the Community Voters Project, one of two main groups being investigated.

Hers is one of 49 cases that city election officials submitted to the district attorney for review. Nearly all involved the Community Voters Project or the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now. [aka ACORN - Ed.]

The complaint said the Voters Project had flagged 28 problem names from Adams for the city election officials. Investigators found another 45 names submitted earlier were added to the city’s voter list, but about 60 percent were deemed false and were removed.
